Forgot icloud password and unable to verify rescue email?

So I forgot my icloud password and I know what my rescue email is however back in august I didn't know that you had to verify it so I didn't and now that I don't know my password I can't take my icloud off my phone I also don't want to delete everything off my phone because it wouldn't make a difference since it's still on my icloud , I just wanted to know how to resend the verification email? Like I can send it then I can send it to reset my password???

    My iCloud email address and my apple ID are different. I would like to change my iCloud to be the same as my apple ID. However I don't know my iCloud password and don't use the email address it belongs to. When I try to change the password, apple brings me to a page to reset my apple ID password (which I know and don't want to change). I have even tried to delete my iCloud account completely to start again but am not allowed without the iCloud password (which I don't have) there doesn't seem to be a place to change the email address of iCloud. What can I do?

    This is the answer that I had expected, so in this case you could only change your gmail.com address to another providers email addres e.g. outlook.com, yahoo.com, etc., but you won't be able to change the gmail.com address to a icloud.com email address. Apple just won't let you do that.
    Your iCloud account with @icloud.com email address and you Apple ID with gmail.com address are already connected and as I said before, Apple just let you merge this two IDs together.

  • HT5312 I forgot  security questions, and there is no rescue email, what should i do?

    I forgot  security questions, and there is no rescue email, what should i do?

    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use.

    If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
    If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

  • Forgotten my security passwords and i have no rescue email..

    I got an ipod nano (the new one) for christmas! also, £15 of Itunes, but after i created an account, redeemed the code and decided to buy a song... i realised that i had forgotten my security questions and i had no recovery email. Upon reading alot of help guide information, i found out i need to phone apple to get this issue resolved.  but.. i can't unfortunatley, plus i'm very shy and i have social problems, is there anyway i can just create a recovery email (Rescue email) if i sign into my apple id? 
    I want to make purchases, but i have no clue what my Security questions were and i have no rescue email.
    Thank you.

  • Forgot icloud password and email I used is blocked

    My Son has an old Iphone 4 that we want to use as his Brother has lost his phone.
    He now has an Iphone 5 with a new Icloud account because thats what teenagers seem to do! (have loads of  email accounts with numerous passwords!)
    Anyway, the iphone 4 is linked to the old apple ID (find my phone is active) and my son cannot for the life of him remember the password for that icloud account, and the email address he used to use is no longer active either.
    What can we do please?

    Hi tjmoore1004,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing on this iPhone 4. If the phone is Activation Locked and you are having issues accessing the account, you may find the following article and links helpful:

    First, remove your personal information from your post.  That's not needed here.  This is a public forum, and it is unwise to provide your personal data online.
    Second, here's how you reset your password and/or security questions.
    How to reset your Apple ID password.
    Go to iforgot.apple.com and type in your Apple ID, then click 'Next'.
    Verify your date of birth, then click 'Next'.
    You'll be able to choose one of two methods to reset your password, either E-Mail Authentication or Answer Security Questions.
    If neither method works, then go to https://getsupport.apple.com
    (If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services')
    Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
    A new page will open.
    Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'.
    Click the blue 'Continue' button.
    Select the contact option that suits your needs best.
    How to reset your Apple ID security questions.
    Go to appleid.apple.com, click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
    Log in with your Apple ID and password. (If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email)
    Go to the Password & Security section on the left side, and click on the link underneath the security questions that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'.  This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't work, or  there is no rescue email link available, then click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later.
    Next, go to https://getsupport.apple.com
    (If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services')
    Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
